Welcome back to The Corelink Solution family. I’m so excited to share this episode with you. I had the honor of welcoming Cameron Arnett, a man of deep faith and conviction, to discuss a topic that’s close to both our hearts: calling the church back to its lordship and the transformative journey of being a bond servant to Christ. We also discuss how our faith impacts our career journey. And lastly, Philabundance CEO, Loree Jones-Brown shares her new food insecurity campaign, Spread the Love.

The Heart of Servitude

Cameron and I dove into the essence of what it means to be a true servant to our Lord. It’s not about titles or positions; it’s about a heart posture that says, “Not my will, but Yours be done.” Cameron reflected on his career, attributing his success not to his own efforts but to the divine orchestration of God’s plan. This humility and recognition of God’s sovereignty are what being a bond servant is all about.

Unpacking Biblical Truths

One of the key takeaways from our conversation was the importance of understanding biblical words and phrases in their original context. We often read scripture through the lens of our modern culture, which can lead to misinterpretations. By delving into the historical and cultural backdrop of the Bible, we gain a richer, more accurate understanding of God’s Word and how it applies to our lives.

Living Under Lordship

What does it look like to live under the lordship of Jesus Christ daily? Cameron and I explored this question, acknowledging that it requires a shift in our priorities and perspectives. It’s about aligning our decisions, actions, and thoughts with God’s will, leading to a life that’s not only fulfilling but also pleasing to Him.

The Wisdom Ball Analogy

Cameron shared a powerful analogy from basketball, which he calls “wisdom ball.” It’s the concept of working smart, not just hard. In our walk with God, this translates to trusting in His guidance and not being overwhelmed by the pressures of life. It’s about discerning when to say no to the world and yes to God’s direction.

Standing Firm in Faith In Your Career

Our discussion took a personal turn as Cameron recounted his experiences in the entertainment industry, where standing firm in his Christian principles often led to challenges and exclusion. His advice to those facing similar trials within their career is to navigate them with unwavering faith and trust in God’s plan.

A Journey of Growth

Cameron also opened up about his spiritual journey, sharing pivotal moments and encounters with spiritual mentors that shaped his understanding of God’s lordship. These experiences were not just milestones but catalysts for deeper commitment and growth in his faith.

Addressing Food Insecurity

The episode took a compassionate turn as we welcomed Loree Jones-Brown, CEO of Philabundance, to discuss the pressing issue of food insecurity. Loree provided staggering statistics and emphasized the need for sustained support, not just during the holiday season but year-round. She offered practical ways for individuals to make a difference, highlighting the power of community involvement.

The “Spread the Love” Campaign

We wrapped up the episode with a preview of the “Spread the Love” campaign, an initiative aimed at combating food insecurity. It’s a call to action for all of us to step up and support those in need, reinforcing the message of service and lordship that permeated our entire conversation.

Thank you for joining me on this journey. Remember to be informed, be inspired and be accountable. I’ll see you next episode.
